Railway Children at King’s Cross

KidRated’s Railway Children Top Tips:

This adaptation of E. Nesbit’s classic novel The Railway Children at LONDON’S KING’S CROSS THEATRE is the perfect treat for all the family.

Set in a purpose built 1,000 seat venue, this breath-taking show features a stage built around a real train track, a beautiful 60-tonne locomotive that steams into the theatre!

Don’t miss your chance to join Bobbie, Peter and Phyllis on the adventure of a lifetime as they tell the story of how they became The Railway Children.

Shaun Williamson has joined the cast as Mr Perks, as the show celebrates its first anniversary at King’s Cross Theatre in London.

Parents, if you loved the 1970 film starring Jenny Agutter when you were young, this is a perfect way to give a classic a new lease of life and engage the kids in a part of your childhood. Like the recent Paddington movie, it will be almost impossible to leave the theatre without a slight feeling of nostalgia.

If somehow the story has passed you by, the play is about the siblings Bobbie, Phyllis and Peter who move to a house near a railway track when their father is accused of spying. Living by the railway enables the three children to have many adventures and meet plenty of interesting people.

£1 from every ticket goes to the Railway Children Charity which aims to stop abuse of children who live alone or on the streets worldwide.
